31 May 2002	RepeatStr()
Author	Lee Wilmott
Action	Repeats a given string a specified number of times.
Syntax	RepeatStr ("stringtorepeat", "numberoftimes")
Parameters	stringtorepeat (Required / String) A string of any length that is to be repeated. numberoftimes (Required / String) Specifies the number of times which the specified string should be repeated.
Remarks	I know this function is really, really simple. But it is a function I use a great deal for formatting and underlining text. I was hoping that if enough people like it that one day it would be added to Kix natively.

Dependencies	None.
Examples	? "'" + RepeatStr(" ", 3) + "'" ;output ' ' ? "'" + RepeatStr(" ", 0) + "'" ;output '' ? "'" + RepeatStr("-", 5) + "'" ;output '-----' ? "'" + RepeatStr("abc", 2) + "'" ;output 'abcabc'
